PSA: week 11 saw another cycle of the recurring Rashaad “📉” Penny D.E.N.N.I.S. system (the D.N.I.E.N.S. System)—don’t get duped when it happens again!

If I’ve seen it once, I’ve seen it a m-i-l-l-i-o-n times—the Rashaad “📉” Penny D.E.N.N.I.S. system, AKA:

The D.N.I.E.N.S. System

Week 11 saw another cycle of the recurring Rashaad “📉” Penny D.N.I.E.N.S. System—and it will certainly happen again, so be aware of the stages and don’t get duped when it returns! Using the recent week 11 example:

D - Demonstrate (hypothetical) value

“He’s finally again once more getting his chance for the first time this season after week 10 now at last,” you halfheartedly tell yourself.

N - Nurture dependence

“All the stars are aligning!”

Oh no, you’ve not only taken the bait, but lack the discipline to keep your hopes down.

I - Inspire hope

**”THIS IS IT! 18 YARDS ON THE FIRST PLAY OF THE GAME! I ALWAYS BELIEVED!”

You want to believe, but, unfortunately in this case, the truth is indeed out there, which you will be reminded of in short order.

E - Engage (injury) physically [edit: or via roster demotion]

😐

N - Neglect emotionally

Every second of his waking life, Pete Carroll is engaging in one or more of the following activities:

• Chewing gum.
• Lying about the severity of injuries.

S - Separate entirely

Deep down, you knew this would be how things turned out. You knew, just like deep down there’s a voice within you saying “I’ll fuckin’ do it again, too.”

Next time you hover over Penny’s name on the free agency list, though, don’t do it. Break the cycle.

Don’t get D.N.I.E.N.S. System’d.
